NOS: Netware 5.1 , SP3
I have noticed that since I applied Novell SP3, Backup Exec 8.5 started failing to backup the NDS. It reports
"Insufficient priviledge for /.T=/.CN=Security - Skipped". Should this be relevant, I have no container with the name T.

What should I do to fix this?
Thanks,
Ab

In this case, the /.T= is prebably referencing the tree name. There are several articles in the Vertias knowledgebase about this kind of error. Check them out to see if any apply to your environment

You may try to create a new backup job to backup NDS. Apparently the job has invalid tree information, hence the /.T=. Make sure your backup user has full rights to the root of the tree

BE is very picky when it comes to the versions of the Novell NLMs it's using (SMDR, TSANDS, TSA500). Applying a SP may have changed those NLMs. Try back-reving to the older versions that worked before the SP. Veritas support usually has a list of the versions of those NLMs known to work with a certain version of NW and BE.

I used to use BE 8.5, it failed whenever it wanted, I gave up on , installed Novastor 8.5, never had a problem with it, it backs up everything.
